Spring on Hyatt Lane

Cade's Cove Oak Tree | Great Smoky Mountains Landscape Photography

Early morning sunlight on a majestic oak tree covered in the vivid colors of fresh buds and early spring foliage along Hyatt Lane in Cade's Cove, located in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in eastern TN. The warm light of the early morning sun skimming across the valley floor lit this shot wonderfully, and the combination of the daytime moon, fluffy clouds rolling over the mountain tops, and a herd of deer in the distance really made this scene one to remember.

Cade's Cove is an incredible place to visit if you're near the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Eastern Tennessee. It's a quiet place where wildlife roams the wilderness in it's natural habitat and seems largely unaffected by the presence of people. If you enjoy viewing native wildlife in a natural setting, Cade's Cove should be on your short list of places to visit.
